Ok guys there might be a little confusion for those of you who have NOT had a BlackBerry before.

1. The program that interfaces from pc to your BB is blackbery desktop manager...you want the latest one. version 4.3
(I downloaded the one with media manager and only in english, 218mb)

2. Before you put ANYTHING on your curve, (you should have desktop manager 4.3 by now) you want to update to the newest OS for the phone

Package Version: 4.3.0.203
Consisting of:

* Applications: 4.3.0.127
* Software Platform: 3.1.0.73
* File name: 8330uEFS_PBr4.3.0_rel203_PL3.1.0.73_A4.3.0.127_Spr int.exe
* File size: 97.46MB

which you can get at the same link posted above.

Enjoy!

The Curve comes with 4.3 OS, so getting the 4.2.2.xxx would be a step down.

Still, v4.3.0.127 (Platform: 3.1.0.73) is what the Curve comes with from Sprint, so there is no need to update the OS at this time. Not sure which BDM comes with the Curve though since I've been running 4.3 for a while anyways, so I didn't even bother opening up the software that came with the Curve.
